外文摘要：In today's modern era， with the advent of technology many people rely on GPS systems to find a destination。 However， locating a destination within the confines of an indoor environment is still a challenge as GPS signals do not work indoors， and most people still resort to the conventional method of referring to a physical floor plan or directory。 This paper sets to present a mobile software application that uses a visual recognition and pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) system to create an interactive indoor navigation system using augmented reality (AR)。 In order to provide an intelligent and context-sensitive navigation platform， data from smartphone sensors are utilised to enable the navigation system to work in an indoor environment。 These sensors include using the accelerometer， compass and camera - sensors which already exist in today's mobile devices。 Using these technologies， a prototype for an Android application called SunMap+ has been developed to showcase the possibilities of indoor navigation using AR in the test environment of Sunway University campus。
